Do not touch any circuitry components while the main AC power is on. In addition, wait until the
red “CHARGE” LED is out before performing any service on that unit. It may take as long as 5
minutes for the charge on the main DC bus capacitors to drop to a safe level.

Do not check signals during operation.

Do not connect the main output terminals (U/T1, V/T2, W/T3) to the incoming, three-phase AC
source.

Before executing a rotational Auto-Tuning, ensure that the motor is disconnected from the drive
train and the electric brake is released. If the electric brake cannot be released, you must ensure
that the brake is disengaged for the entire tuning process.

Read and understand this manual before installing, operating, or servicing this drive. All
warnings, cautions, and instructions must be followed. All activity must be performed by qualified
personnel. The drive must be installed according to this manual and local codes.

Do not connect or disconnect wiring while the power is on. Do not remove covers or touch circuit
boards while the power is on. Do not remove or insert the digital operator while power is on.

Before servicing, disconnect all power to the equipment. The internal capacitor remains charged
even after the power supply is turned off. The charge indicator LED will extinguish when the DC
bus voltage is below 50 VDC. To prevent electric shock, wait at least five minutes after all
indicators are OFF and measure DC bus voltage to confirm safe level.

Do not perform a withstand voltage test on any part of the unit. This equipment uses sensitive
devices and may be damaged by high voltage.

The drive is suitable for circuits capable of delivering not more than 100,000 RMS symmetrical
Amperes. Install adequate branch circuit short circuit protection per applicable codes. Failure to
do so may result in equipment damage and/or personal injury.

Do not connect unapproved LC or RC interference suppression filters, capacitors, or overvoltage


protection devices to the output of the drive. These devices may generate peak currents that
exceed drive specifications.

parameters. The parameters and performance differ because the VG+ drives includes a PG-X3
encoder feedback card allowing the drive to perform Flux Vector control of the motor. The G+ drives
operate in V/f or Open Loop Vector control methods, appropriate for traverse or standard hoist
motions. The VG+ drives are typically applied to the non-mechanical load brake hoist motion, and
can be applied to traverse motions where torque control or a wide speed control range is required.

Many IMPULSE®•G+ and VG+ Series 4 parameter functions are common between the two drive
classes. The functions that differ are noted with a “Model” column; this column designates which
parameters are available for a given function. Functions may also be control method dependent;
these differences are noted in the function and parameter details. Table 1-1 below notes which
drives can operate in a particular control method.

The instructions in the following chapters apply to most IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 crane, hoist,
and monorail applications. However, carefully evaluate each specific situation and ensure that the
National Electric Code (NEC) codes and local wiring practices are followed.

These chapters explain how to install the IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 and, to some extent, the
components that it interconnects. It explains how to: assess the drive’s environment, mount the
drive, and wire the drive circuits. It is important to develop a “plan of attack” for both the mounting
and wiring since each task has an effect on the other one. IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Wiring
Practices is included to provide assistance and reference.
NOTE: If the IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 is part of a Magnetek motor control panel, reference
the control drawings, disregard this chapter, and turn to Chapter 4.

Introduction
Assessing the System Requirements
It is important to know how the drive will be utilized before working on installation and wiring. Please
know the requirements for the following components:
• Speed control method(s) - i.e. stepped, stepless, infinitely variable
• Braking method(s) - coast to stop, decel to stop, No Load Brake (NLB) Hoist
• Power source voltage, number of phases, and kVA rating
• Power source location
• Wire size
• Grounding location and method
• Control wiring sources - i.e. cab, pendant, radio

Assessing the Drive Environment


When choosing a location for IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that a three-phase 200 to 240 VAC 50/60 Hz power supply is available for a 230 VAC-
rated drive, a three-phase 380 to 480 VAC 50/60 Hz power supply is available for a 460 VAC-
rated drive, and a 500 to 600 VAC 50/60 Hz power supply is available for a 575 VAC-rated drive.
2. Ensure the encoder is supplied with +5 VDC or 12 VDC.
3. If the RMS encoder current requirement is greater than 200 mA, provide an auxiliary power
supply to the encoder.
4. Ensure that the drive-to-motor wiring distance is less than 150 ft. unless appropriate reactors,
filters, and/or inverter duty motor is used.
5. Ensure that the drive circuit wiring is protected or isolated from:
• Ambient temperatures outside the range of +14°F to +140°F (-10°C to +60°C) at 2 kHz
carrier frequency.
• Rain or moisture
• Corrosive gases or liquids
• Direct sunlight
• Severe mechanical vibration
6. Ensure that the drive is housed in an appropriate NEMA-rated enclosure.
7. For severe-duty applications (long lifts, for example) or with 75-HP-or-greater motors, ensure
that the drive control system (including dynamic braking resistors) is adequately cooled, even
though the ambient temperature limit is not exceeded. For more information, contact Magnetek.

AC Reactor Specifications
Reactors, both as input (line) and output (load) devices, protect adjustable frequency drives, motors,
and other load devices against excessive voltage and current.

The following guidelines may help determine input and output reactor requirements:
• The following tables are only a guideline. The motor FLA should not exceed the reactor FLA.
• Install an input reactor if the power source is greater than 500 kVA.
• Install an output reactor if the distance between the drive and the motor exceeds 150 feet.
• Install an output reactor if a device, such as a power limit switch, is used to disconnect the motor
from the drive. Use a power limit switch early break circuit to fault the drive.
• Install one output reactor per drive for a multiple-drive arrangement requiring reactor protection.
• For a multiple drive arrangement, an input reactor for each drive is recommended for optimal
protection. However, if the drives are within two drive sizes of each other, a single input reactor
can be used. The reactor must be rated at amperage equal to or greater than the sum of the
amperage for all the drives.
• Reactors are most effective when the reactor current rating approaches the drive current rating.

Long Time Storage
Powering up the drives every six months is quite beneficial. Over longer periods of time without
power, the drives’ electrolytic DC bus capacitors require reformation, especially if stored in an area
of high temperatures. Capacitor reforming is required if drives are stored without power for more
than 2 to 3 years. This process can be avoided by powering up the drive bi-annually for 30 to 60
minutes.
NOTE: Bus cap reforming alone may not restore full drive functionality after 2 to 3 years of
storage without power.

Inverter drives contain large bus capacitors that have the potential to be reformed. However, printed
circuit boards also contain electrolytic capacitors that may not function after several years without
power. Magnetek recommends replacing the PCBs should the drive’s functionality not be restored
after bus cap reforming. Contact Magnetek Service for questions.

Capacitor Storage and their Reforming Process


The electrical characteristics of aluminum electrolytic capacitors are dependent on temperature; the
higher the ambient temperature, the faster the deterioration of the electrical characteristics (i.e.,
leakage current increase, capacitance drop, etc.). If an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is exposed to
high temperatures such as direct sunlight, heating elements, etc., the life of the capacitor may be
adversely affected. When capacitors are stored under humid conditions for long periods of time, the
humidity will cause the lead wires and terminals to oxidize, which impairs their solderability.
Therefore, aluminum electrolytic capacitors should be stored at room temperature, in a dry location
and out of direct sunlight.

In the event that a capacitor has been stored in a high ambient environment for more than 2 or 3
years, a voltage treatment reformation process to electrolytic capacitors may have to be performed.
When stored above room temperatures for long periods of time, the anode foil may react with the
electrolyte, increasing the leakage current. After storage, the application of even normal voltages to
these capacitors may result in higher than normal leakage currents. In most cases the leakage
current levels will decrease in a short period of time as the normal chemical reaction within the
capacitor occurs. However, in extreme cases, the amount of gas generated may cause the safety
vent to open.

Capacitors, when used in inverter drives that are stored for long periods of time, should be subjected
to a voltage treatment/reforming process as noted below, which will reform the dielectric and return
the leakage current to the initial level.

Inverter Bus Capacitor Reforming Procedure:


1. Connect the inverter inputs L1 and L2 to a variac.
2. Make sure the variac voltage setting is turned down so that when input power is applied to the
variac, the output of the variac will be at or near 0 volts.
3. Apply power to the variac, listening for abnormal sounds and watching for abnormal visual
indications in the drive. If the variac has an output current indication, make sure the current is
very near zero with zero or a steady output voltage applied.
4. Slowly turn the variac up, increasing the variac’s output voltage to nominal rated input voltage
over a time period of 2 to 3 minutes. In other words, ramp the voltage up at a rate of
approximately 75 to 100 volts/minute for 230 VAC units, 150 to 200 volts/minute for 460 VAC
units, and 225 to 300 volts/minute for 575 VAC.
5. Let the output voltage remain at rated voltage for 30 to 60 minutes while keeping close watch for
abnormal signs within the inverter. While increasing the variac’s output voltage, the current will
momentarily increase as current is necessary to charge the capacitors.
6. Once 30 to 60 minutes elapse, remove power.

If any abnormal indications occur during this process, it is recommended that the process be
repeated. Otherwise, this completes the capacitor reforming procedure.

NOTE:
• Allowable intake air temperature: 14° to 140°F (-10° to +60°C) at 2 kHz carrier frequency.
• If necessary, a heater or air conditioner must be used to maintain the temperature range
listed above.
6. Lay out the wire runs. Size the wire according to Tables 3-1, 3-2, and 3-3, and in accordance
with NEC Table 610-14(a).
• Ensure that the drive control circuit and power circuit wires are perpendicular to each other
at any point they cross.
• Keep power and control festoon wiring in separate cables.
• Separate control drive circuit and power circuit wiring on the terminal block strip.
7. Obtain the appropriate hardware for mounting.
8. Mount the subpanel or surface to which you are mounting the drive (contact Magnetek if advice
is needed in regards to mounting drives, especially for larger drives).
9. Fasten the drive and components to the subpanel.
10. Remove the terminal cover.
11. Follow the wiring practices outlined in Chapter 3.

Multiple Drive Installation (Side-by-Side Installation)
Models 2003 to 2075, 4001 to 4039, and 5001 to 5027 can take advantage of Side-by-Side
installation.

When mounting drives with the minimum clearing of 0.08 inches (2 mm) according to Figure 2-4, set
parameter L08-35 to 1 while considering derating.

A – 1.97 in (50 mm) minimum C – 0.08 in (2 mm) minimum


B – 1.18 in (30 mm) minimum D – 4.73 in (120 mm) minimum

Figure 2-4: Space Between Drives (Side-by-Side Mounting)


NOTE: Align the tops of the drives when installing drives of different heights in the same
enclosure panel. Leave space between the tops and bottoms of stacked drives for easier
cooling fan replacement.

Drive Derating Data
Temperature Derating
To ensure the maximum performance life, the drive output current must be derated when the drive is
installed in areas with high ambient temperature or if drives are mounted side-by-side in a cabinet. In
order to ensure reliable drive overload protection, set parameters L08-12 and L08-35 according to
the installation conditions. Contact Magnetek for derating curves.

IP00/Open-Chassis Enclosure

Drive operation between -10°C to +60°C (14°F to 140°F) allows CMAA Class F continuous current
without derating.

Side-by-Side Mounting

Drive operation between -10°C and 30°C (14°F to 86°F) allows CMAA Class F continuous current
without derating. Operation between 30°C and 50°C (86°F to 122°F) requires output current
derating.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Wiring Practices

WA R N I N G

Before you wire the drive, review the following practices to help ensure that your system is wired
properly.

• Ensure that the encoder wiring is less than 300 feet unless fiber optic cables are used.
• Ensure that the encoder wiring is isolated from the power wiring.
• Ensure that the encoder wiring shield is grounded only at the drive end.
• Connect the incoming three-phase AC source to terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3.
• Connect the Motor leads to terminals U/T1, V/T2, W/T3.
• Install a line reactor between the output of the drive in applications that require a disconnecting
means between the drive’s output and motor. Use a “make before break” auxiliary contact with
the disconnect means and the hardware base block of the drive.
• Use hard contacts between the PLC output and the drive 120/24/48 VAC input card. If using a
solid state output from a PLC (TRIAC) to a 120/24/48 VAC input card, use a 5K, 5W resistor
between the signal and X2.
• If the power source is 500 kVA or greater, or more than 10 times the inverter kVA rating, ensure
that there is at least 3% impedance between the power source and the drive input. To
accomplish this, a DC reactor can be installed between inverter terminals 1 and 2, or an AC line
reactor can be used on the input of the drive. Excessive peak currents could damage the input
power supply circuit if there is not enough impedance provided.
• Comply with “Suggested Circuit Protection Specifications” on page 3-6.
• Use time delay fuses, which are sized at 150% of drive's continuous rated input current, for
wiring protection.
• Use appropriate R-C or MOV type surge absorbers across the coil of all contactors and relays in
the system. Failure to do so could result in noise-related, nuisance fault incidents.
• Use external dynamic braking resistors for all applications.
• Do not ground the drive with any large-current machines.
• Before using any welding or high-current machines near the crane, disconnect all line and
ground wiring.
• Do not let the wiring leads come in contact with the drive enclosure.
• Do not connect power factor correction capacitors to the drive input or output; use a sine wave
filter.
• When possible, hard-wire the drive and motor. Do not use sliding collector bars (e.g., festoon
cable).
• If there is a user input device or interface board that is remote, use shielded cable between the
drive input terminals and the interface output terminals or user input device(s).
• Before turning on the drive, check the output circuit (U/T1, V/T2 and W/T3) for possible short
circuits and ground faults.
• Increase the wire size by one gauge for every 250 feet (76.2 meters) between the drive and
motor; suggested for center driven cranes, trolleys, and bridges (voltage drop is significant at
low frequencies).
• When using more than one transformer for the drive's power, properly phase each transformer.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual - February 2017


3-3
• To reverse the direction of rotation, program B03-04 = 1 (exchange phases), or interchange any
two motor leads (changing R/L1, S/L2, or T/L3 will not affect the shaft rotation direction) as well
as encoder phasing (F01-02 = 0/1 or swapping A and A wires).
• Use shielded cable for all low-level DC speed reference signals (0 to 10 VDC, 4 to 20 mA).
Ground the shield only at the drive side.
• Please observe National Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines when wiring electrical devices.
• IMPORTANT: All wire connections must have strain relief, and must not apply downward
pressure to the terminals on the drive.
NOTE: Failure to observe these warnings may result in equipment damage.

CAUTION

Do NOT connect external dynamic breaking units to drive braking resistor terminal “B2”.
Connect positive external dynamic braking unit terminal(s) to drive terminal “+3” and negative
external dynamic braking unit terminal(s) to drive terminal “-”. When drive terminal “+3” is
unavailable, use terminal “B1”.

Suggested Circuit Protection Specifications and Wire Size
In order to comply with most safety standards, some circuit protective devices should be used
between the incoming three-phase power supply and the IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4. These
devices can be thermal, magnetic, or molded-case breakers (MCCB); or “slow-blow” type fuses such
as “CCMR” or “J.”

CAUTION

The following guidelines are only suggested values. Always conform to local electrical codes
and wiring practices.

Safe Torque Off
The Safe Disable inputs provide a stop function in compliance with “Safe Torque Off” as defined in
IEC/EN 61800-5-2. Safe Disable inputs have been designed to meet the requirements of the ISO/EN
13849-1, Category 3 PLd, and IEC/EN 61508, SIL2.

Two Safe Disable inputs and one EDM output

Time from input open to drive output stop is less than
Operation Time
1 ms.
Demand Rate Low PFD = 5.15E-5
Failure Probability Demand Rate High/
Continuous PFH = 1.2E-9

The Safe Disable inputs satisfy all requirements of


Performance Level Performance Level (PL) d according to ISO/EN
13849-1 (DC from EDM considered).

Safe Torque Off disable the drive power section for mechanical maintenance, E-stops, or
redundancy safety monitor controller intervention. The feature provides safe removal of motor torque
without removal of power to the drive. This is a standard feature on the IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+
Series 4. A Safe Disable Status Monitor for error detection in the safety circuit is also provided.

The Safe Disable circuit (Figure 3-16) consists of two independent input channels (H1 and H2) that
can block the output transistors and provide a monitoring output channel (DM+ and DM-) to indicate
the status of those input channels.

The input can use the internal 24VDC power supply of the drive or an external power supply, and it
will support Sink mode or Source mode. The mode selected for the digital input terminals S1 to S8
by jumper S3 will also be used for the Safe Disable inputs.
NOTE: Terminals H1, H2, DM+, and DM- on 575V class models are designed to the functionality,
but are not certified to IEC/EN 61800-5-1, ISO/EN 13849 Cat. 3, IEC/EN 61508 SIL2,

Wiring the Encoder Circuit
A shaft-mounted encoder is required to provide speed and shaft position feedback to
IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4. Without an encoder, a flux vector control cannot operate properly.

Before you wire the encoder circuit, refer to the specification tables 3-10 and 3-11 on page 3-25 and
“Suggested Circuit Protection Specifications and Wire Size” on page 3-6.

Encoder Circuit Wiring Procedures


Table 3-9: Encoder Specifications
+12 VDC (+5 VDC by CN3 jumper); if current demand is greater than 200 mA
Power supply (consult factory if inrush currents exceed 200 mA), an auxiliary power supply must
equipped - contact Magnetek to purchase
Output Type Quadrature (A and B channels; Z is not required)
Type of output circuit High-speed, differential line drive (open collector interface is optional).
Maximum Input
300 kHz
Frequency
Mounting method Encoder must be direct-coupled to motor shaft, using a zero-backlash-type coupling.

To wire the encoder circuit for IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 (assuming the cover and keypad are
detached):
1. Direct-couple the encoder to the motor shaft, using a zero-backlash-type coupling.
NOTE: Do not connect the encoder to the motor with roller chain or gear drive. If unable to
direct-couple the encoder, use a timing belt to drive the encoder. (Contact Magnetek
for encoder kits.) Also, do not connect the encoder to the low-speed shaft of a speed
reducer.
2. Connect the encoder to the PG-X3 Encoder Interface Card. Refer to Figure 3-17: “PG-X3
Encoder Card Wiring” on page 3-25.
NOTE: Use twisted-pair, shielded cable W100W impedance (Magnetek R-20/6, R-22/6,
Belden 9730, or Brand Rex T-11651). Strip the encoder wires .25 in. (5.5 mm). Keep
the wiring length less than 300 feet (for cable lengths greater than 300 feet, contact
Magnetek for information on available fiber optic cable).
3. Ground the shielded cable to Terminal FE of the PG-X3 Encoder Interface Card (ground only
one end of the shielded cable).
NOTE: For LakeShore encoders, the shield connection is not considered “Ground.” The
shield should be grounded.
4. Whenever possible, the encoder cable should be wired in a continuous run between the motor
and drive. If it cannot be a direct run, the splice should be in its own junction box and isolated
from the power wires.

Overview
With its easy-to-use keypad and X-Press Programming, the IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 makes it
easy to get up and running right away. In addition to explaining the keypad and X-Press
Programming, this chapter explains how to view the scroll settings, get into the programming mode,
and program speeds.

Checks Before Powering


After mounting and interconnections are completed, verify:
• Correct connections.
• Correct input power supply (no voltage drop or imbalance, source kVA 500, unless a line
reactor is used).
• No short circuit conditions.
• No loose screw terminals (check especially for loose wire clippings).
• Proper load conditions.

Precautions
• Only start the motor if motor shaft rotation is stopped.
• Even with small loading, never use a motor whose nameplate amperage exceeds the inverter
rated current.

DANGER

Extreme caution should be used if braking method is set for Decelerate to stop. If deceleration
time is too long, equipment could run into the end stop device, causing damage to equipment
or injury to personnel.

Using the Keypad
With five 16-character lines available, the keypad display makes it possible to monitor drive
operation, change parameter settings, and view fault codes. In addition, the parameter description is
included on the top line of the display. The keypad enables you to:
• Program the various drive parameters.
• Monitor the functions of the drive.
• Read alpha-numeric fault-diagnostic indications.
• Operate the drive using the keypad (local operation).

WA R N I N G
Because of the additional potential hazards that are introduced when any drive is operated
locally, we advise you to avoid operating it this way. If the drive is operated locally, be aware
that the crane or hoist will move when the RUN button is pressed. Contact Magnetek with any
questions.

Keypad LED and Button Functions
Some of the keypad buttons, whose functions are described below, are dual-purpose. The dual-
purpose keys have one function when used in a view-only mode, and another function when used in
a programming mode.

The functions assigned to F1 and F2 vary depending on the current displayed menu. The
1 name of each function appears in the lower half of the display window.

• Returns to the previous display


2 • Moves the cursor one space to the left.
• Pressing and holding this button will return to the Frequency Reference Display.
• Moves the cursor to the right.
3
• Resets the drive to clear a fault situation.

4 Starts the drive when in LOCAL mode.

Scrolls up to display the next item, selects parameter numbers, and increments setting
5 values.

Scrolls down to display the previous item, selects parameter numbers, and decrements
6 setting values.

• Enters parameter values and settings.


8
• Selects a menu item to move between displays.
• Displays the phone number for the Magnetek Service department.
• Switches drive control between the operator (LOCAL) and an external source
9 (REMOTE) for the Run command and frequency reference. *2
• Pressing the key three times resets the maintenance timer, U01-52.

Lit while the drive is operating the motor.


10 Flashing when the drive has a phantom fault.

11 Lit while the operator is selected to run the drive (LOCAL mode).

Off during normal operation (no fault or alarm).


Illuminated when the drive detects an alarm or error.
12
Flashes when an alarm occurs, when an oPE is detected, or when a fault or error occurs
during Auto-Tuning.
*1 The STOP key has highest priority. Pressing the STOP key will always cause the drive to stop the motor, even if a Run command is active at
any external Run command source.

*2 The LO/RE key can only switch between LOCAL and REMOTE when the drive is stopped. To enable the LO/RE key to switch between
LOCAL and REMOTE, set parameter O02-01 to 1.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


4-5
Parameters
There are hundreds of parameters that determine how the drive functions. These parameters are
programmed into the drive’s software as measurable values or options - both of which will be
referred to in this manual as settings. While some of these parameters are associated with one
setting, others are tied to a number of possible settings.
NOTE: The terms “constant” and “parameter” have the same meaning.

Before shipping the drive, Magnetek programmed initial settings in the drive’s software so that most,
if not all, of the crane system requirements are supported. However, if it is necessary to change the
initial settings, Magnetek recommends that only qualified crane system technicians program the
drive. This can be accomplished by using the Password and Access Level features. For more
information on these security features, see “Initialization Set-Up” on page 4-9.

The drive can be programmed to allow personnel with limited crane system knowledge to program
only certain parameters, called User Parameters. To select these parameters, see “User
Parameters (A02-01 through 32)” on page 4-16.

Two other features to be aware of are Initialize Parameters (A01-05) and User Defaults (O02-03).
Both of these features are related and revert back to previously saved parameter settings. This is
especially helpful when a number of programming changes were made, but the previous settings
may still be needed. To program these features, see “Initialize Parameters (A01-05)” on page 4-15
and “User Defaults (O02-03)” on page 5-124.

Auto-Tuning

CAUTION

The brake output is not energized during Auto-Tune. The brake must be manually released
before tuning and set when Auto-Tuning is complete. Ensure no load is on the hook, and that
the hook is near the floor.

The IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 can adapt to nearly all motors manufactured worldwide with its
automatic tuning function. The inverter asks the user for minimal motor information, and then guides
the user through a quick simple tuning process. Ideally, perform a standard Auto-Tune with the motor
uncoupled from the load. When the motor cannot be decoupled, perform a static or non-rotating
Auto-Tune.
NOTE: Contact Magnetek’s service department if an auto-tune can not be performed.

Standard Auto-Tune (T01-01 = 0) Instructions


This is a rotational Auto-Tuning method for the IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 drive which allows for
Auto-Tuning on an unloaded or decoupled motor.

This method requires that the motor be unloaded or decoupled from the load with the brake
disengaged.

The instructions below will provide a step-by-step procedure to complete the non-rotational segment
of this Auto-Tune function:
1. In preparation for the Auto-Tune, the crane should be unloaded with minimal attachments. This
Auto-Tuning method requires free rotation of the unloaded motor, so decoupling the motor from
the load may be necessary.
2. Ensure the break is not set during the Auto-Tuning process.
3. Using the keypad, browse to the “Auto-Tuning” menu.
4. Choose “Standard Tuning” (T01-01 = 0) for the Tuning Mode.
5. Enter the nameplate motor characteristics (T01-02 – T01-08) until the “Tuning Ready?” screen is
reached.
6. Press the green “RUN” key to start the Auto-Tune. It will take up to a few minutes to complete.
During this time, the current will ramp up and down and a high pitched frequency may be audible
coming from the motor; this is normal. The motor will then begin a rotational cycle, which will
complete in one minute or less.
7. When the Auto-Tune has completed, the keypad display will display an “End Tune Successful”
message. Press the “ESC” key twice to exit.
NOTE: If the STOP key is depressed during tuning, auto-tuning is interrupted and the motor
coasts to a stop. The data changed during tuning returns to its original values.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


4-18
Non-Rotational Auto-Tune (T01-01 = 1) Instructions
A non-rotational Auto-Tuning method has been implemented into the IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 drive
which allows for Auto-Tuning without decoupling the motor.

This method will require a short movement of the crane subsequent to the non-rotational Auto-Tune
process which allows the drive to calibrate the Motor Rated Slip and No-Load Current.

The instructions below will provide a step-by-step procedure to complete the non-rotational segment
of this Auto-Tune function:
1. In preparation for the Auto-Tune, the crane should be unloaded with minimal hook attachments.
For Traverse motion, ensure freedom of travel for Step #6.
2. Using the keypad, browse to the “Auto-Tuning” menu.
3. Choose “Tune-No Rotate1” (T01-01 = 1) for the Tuning Mode.
4. Enter the nameplate motor characteristics (T01-02 ~ T01-09) until the “Tuning Ready?” screen is
reached.
5. Press the green “RUN” key to start the Auto-Tune. It will take up to a few minutes to complete.
During this time, the current will ramp up and down and a high pitched frequency may be audible
coming from the motor; this is normal. When the Auto-Tune has completed, the keypad display
will display an “End Tune Successful” message. Press the “ESC” key twice to exit.
6. Run the motor to at least 30% of the Rated Frequency (T01-05). For example, if the Rated
Frequency is 60 Hz, the motor must run to at least 18 Hz. In a hoisting motion, the motor must
be run in the Up/Raising direction.
NOTE: In hoisting motions, remove any loads or spreader bars.
7. When the short run and adjustments have been completed, the motor will stop, and the keypad
will display “TMDN Tune Complete”. The Auto-Tune is now complete and the drive is ready for
normal operation.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017

This method is recommended for motors configured with the V/f control method when the motor
horsepower and motor rated current are known.

The instructions below will provide a step-by-step procedure to complete the non-rotational segment
of this Auto-Tune function:
1. In preparation for the Auto-Tune, the crane should be unloaded with minimal hook attachments.
2. Using the keypad, browse to the “Auto-Tuning” menu.
3. Choose “Term Resistance” (T01-01 = 2) for the Tuning Mode.
4. Enter the nameplate motor characteristics for Motor Horsepower and Motor Rated Current (T01-
02 and T01-04) until the “Tuning Ready?” screen is reached.
5. Press the green “RUN” key to start the Auto-Tune. It will take up to a few minutes to complete.
During this time, the current will ramp up and down and a high pitched frequency may be audible
coming from the motor; this is normal. When the Auto-Tune has completed, the keypad display
will display an “End Tune Successful” message. Press the “ESC” key twice to exit.

Non-Rotational 2 Auto-Tune (T01-01 = 4) Instructions


This is a non-rotational Auto-Tuning method for the IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 drive which allows for
Auto-Tuning without decoupling the motor.

This method is recommended when the motor cannot be decoupled, and the Motor Rated Slip is
known. If the Motor Rated Slip is not known, then the Non-Rotational 1 (T01-01 = 1) is
recommended.

The instructions below will provide a step-by-step procedure to complete the non-rotational segment
of this Auto-Tune function:
1. In preparation for the Auto-Tune, the crane should be unloaded with minimal hook attachments.
2. Using the keypad, browse to the “Auto-Tuning” menu.

Decel to Stop (B03-03=0)


Upon removal of the FWD or REV run command, the motor decelerates at a rate determined by the
time set in deceleration time 1 (B05-02) and DC injection braking is applied after the DC injection
start frequency D01-01 has been reached. If the deceleration time is set too short or the load inertia
is too large, an overvoltage fault (OV) or deviation (DEV) may occur during deceleration. In this case,
increase the deceleration time or install an optional braking transistor and/or braking resistor.

The Phantom Stop allows quick identification of a faulted drive while stopping other drives with
Phantom Stop enabled. The Phantom Stop feature is designed to stop the drive operation using the
stopping method selected in C03-10 when a Phantom Fault input (H01-01–H01-08 = 5F or 63) is
active. The drive will indicate a Phantom Fault has occurred by blinking the LED on the RUN key in
sequence of two short bursts. The drive will resume normal operation when a Phantom Fault is
removed.

Parameter Display Function Range Default Model
C03-11 Load Share Limit See below for detailed description 0, 1 0 VG+
0 Disabled
1 Enabled

The VG+ Series 4 Software allows one or more IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 driven motors to be
connected in a Master/Slave fashion such that slave inverter will follow the torque reference of the
master inverter. It can be configured in two ways, either as a dedicated Slave or as a Master/Slave
that can be switched on or off by multi-function digital input. When it is in Load Share Mode (Slave),
it is essentially a torque helper to the master motor. The Master outputs the commanded amount of
torque from a ± 10 VDC analog signal into the Slave, which correlates directly to the direction and
quantity of torque the Slave should apply to its own motor. This can be particularly useful when two
or more motors are driving a common load (i.e. single drum, gear box, etc.) and it is important that
they share the load. This will allow one inverter/motor to handle the speed reference and speed
regulation while the others simply help the master. This overcomes inherent problems with having
more than one inverter/motor trying to regulate speed on a common load. The Load Sharing function
can be used when the master is configured for Hoist or Traverse motions (i.e. for a hoist motion, two
or more motors coupled to a single gearbox; for a traverse motion, a circular crane, multiple motors
driving a single end truck, cable reel, etc).
NOTE: The master drive can be an IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 1, 2, 3, or 4.
When using Multi-function digital input H01-0x = 66—”Load Share” (Torque Following mode), setting
C03-11 = Enabled will allow the inverter to accept the Limit Switch inputs where H01-0x = 06–0D.
When C03-11 = Disabled (Factory Default), the Slave will ignore any change in state of the Limit
switch inputs. The setting of this parameter is only in effect when the Multi-function digital input H01-
0x = 66 “Load Share” is ON. It is important to understand that when in Load Sharing mode, the Slave
is only supplying torque to help the Master. The Master typically handles the logic of limit switches or

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


5-20
other special functions. If this is not the case, each inverter may try to move or decelerate at a
different speed placing extra strain on the drive train and potentially resulting in a speed deviation
fault.
NOTE:
1. The Limit Switch stopping method is not selectable in Load Sharing mode. If a Stop Limit is
input, the output is turned off and the brake output will set immediately.
2. Weight Limit Input (H01-xx = 12 or 62) — Upper Limit 3 is always active regardless of the setting
of parameter C03-11.

Minimum Programming Requirement for “Load Sharing” Operation

1. The Master and Slave drives must be set to Flux Vector control method, A01-02 = 3.
2. The Master drive requires a ±10 VDC output with H04-01 or H04-04 = 109 — “Torque Reference”.
3. The Master drive analog output gain (H04-02 or H04-05) should be = 50%.
4. The Master drive requires H02-0x = 2A — “During RUN 2”.
5. The Slave drive requires H01-xx = 66 — “Load Share”.
6. The Slave drive requires a ±10 VDC input with H03-06 or H03-10 = 13 — “Torque Reference”.
7. The Slave drive analog input gain (H03-07 or H03-11) should be = 200%.
8. OPTIONAL: The Master drive can be set to H01-xx = 68 — “LodShr Ready Run”, and then the
Slave Drive can be set to H02-0x = 0 — “Brake Release.”

Klixon
The Klixon Multi-Function input is intended for motors that have a Motor Thermal Overload Switch.
Klixon is usually embedded in the motor windings and changes state when the motor reaches a
certain temperature. When a multi-function input (H01-0x = 56 or 57) is active, the drive will use the
stopping method programmed in C03-12 and display the KLX Klixon alarm. The drive will resume
normal operation when the motor cools down and a new RUN command is applied.

is used in conjunction with the Electronic Programmable Limit Switch parameters. Reference Figure

C03-17, C03-18, or C03-19 has a value other than 0, the EPLS function will be enabled. Height
measurement must be correctly setup before using EPLS.

Lower Limit/Upper Limit Bypass MFDI


The Limit Bypass allows for the following without the use of jumpers or re-programming of the drive
parameters:
1. Ease of testing of the Weighted Upper Limit Switch (UL3) or re-homing the Height
Measurement function, and
2. To allow changing of the wire ropes, i.e. spooling all the rope off of the hoist drum.
NOTE: The momentary key-switch to operate this function should only be accessible to
maintenance personnel, not the crane operator. A functional description and usage
procedure should be included in an administrative control program to avoid confusion and
potentially have the End of Travel Limit switches left in a bypassed state during normal
operation of the crane.

Load Float
When Load Float (C08-10) is enabled, it maintains the motor shaft at a stationary position with brake
open. The Load Float 2 (MFDI=35) function triggers the drive to go into Load Float for the time set in
C04-01. During Load Float, the drive will open the brake and hold the motor at a zero position. A
FWD or REV run command will take priority over this function. In NLB applications, the standard
brake checks will be performed if starting from Base Block.

Load Check II™


The Load Check II function is a load-limiting feature which ensures the programmed load limit of the
hoist is not exceeded. It prevents the lifting (and potential stall) of a load that is overweight. When
IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 detects an overload condition it prevents any further lifting. The load
may then be lowered at the speed that is specified by the Load Check Alarm Speed (C05-08).

DANGER

Load Check II is designed to limit loads less than or equal to the crane’s rated capacity.
Consult the factory and crane manufacturer before calibrating Load Check II with a load
heavier than the crane capacity.

V/f Operation (A01-02 = 00)


When using Load Check II in V/f control method (during lifting) the IMPULSE®•G+ Series 4 will
compare the motor current readings (U01-03) to values stored during the Load Check set up
process. If they exceed the values for the active Load Check Zone, the IMPULSE®•G+ Series 4 will
stop the motor based on the LC Alarm Action (C05-02) and display a Load Check alarm (LC).
NOTE: If an application requires Load Check to be bypassed, an MFDI may be programmed to 69
(N.O.) or 6A (N.C.)
NOTE: It is highly recommended to use OLV or FLV control methods for Load Check II.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


5-26
OLV and FLV Operation (A01-02 = 02 and 03)
When using Load Check II in Open Loop Vector or Flux Vector control method, the IMPULSE®•G+
and VG+ Series 4 will compare the motor torque readings (U01-09) to values stored during the Load
Check set up process. If they exceed the values for the active Load Check Zone, the IMPULSE®•G+
and VG+ Series 4 will stop the motor based on the LC Alarm Action (C05-02) and displays a Load
Check alarm (LC).
NOTE: If an application requires Load Check to be bypassed, an MFDI may be programmed to 69
(N.O.) or 6A (N.C.).
NOTE: The Load Check II function will alter the acceleration time, depending on loading.
Therefore, it must be disabled when using two or more hoists to lift a single load. Use
MFDO H01-0x = 69 or MFDO H01-0x = 6A to bypass Load Check.

Load Check II Set Up (C05-01 = 09)


The Load Check II set up procedure will quickly measure and calculate the current or torque
required at each of the Load Check Zones starting with the rated load suspended. These values will
automatically be stored in parameters C05-09 through C05-24 during the Load Check II set up
process.
The following steps are required to perform the Load Check II set up process.
1. Verify that when the Master Switch is at full deflection (the highest speed point if stepped, or 10V
if Analog), the Frequency Reference shown in U01-01 is equal to Motor Base Frequency shown
in E01-06 (typically 60Hz). For example, with a 3-Step speed reference, if B01-03 is set at 60Hz,
then the frequency reference should be 60Hz when the Master Switch is pushed to full
deflection. If the frequency reference doesn’t reach Motor Base Frequency, set the following
(depending on Speed Ref):
• Multi-Step: B01-0x is 60Hz
• Infinitely Variable: B02-01 = 100%
• Analog: H03-03 = 100% and B02-01 = 100%
2. The motor should be properly Auto-tuned.
• FLV and OLV operation – Rotational Auto-tune.
• V/f operation – Stationary Auto-tune.
3. Check that B02-03 and E01-09 are at their desired values. If you change these values, re-run
Load Check II setup.
4. Motor should be at normal operating temperature for the application (operate at or near rated
capacity for at least 10 minutes) before performing the Load Check set up process.
5. Suspend the rated load just off of the ground (this allows for accurate measurements during
calibration).
6. Set C05-01 equal to 9.
7. Press and hold the Hoist (Up) command button on the pendant or radio for full speed operation
(60 Hz).
NOTE: The Load Check set up process can be temporarily paused by lowering the load back to
the ground, keeping the load suspended, then pressing and holding the Hoist (Up)
command button at full speed until the Load Check set up process is complete.
8. When the Load Check set up process finishes its calculations, the drive will decelerate the load
to indicate the set up calibration is complete.
9. Press the Lower (Down) command to complete the Load Check set up process and lower the
load to the ground.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


5-27
NOTE: If an application requires Load Check to be bypassed, an MFDI may be programmed to 69
(N.O.) or 6A (N.C.)
NOTE: Upon completion of the Load Check set-up process, the drive will automatically set
C05-01 to 1.
NOTE: If an error occurs during the Load Check set up, the load being lifted causes current or
torque to exceed 250%. Increase Holding Time and Testing Time, and decrease the load
weight.

Swift-Lift™ & Ultra-Lift™
Swift-Lift/Ultra-Lift provides additional productivity by allowing a crane or hoist to quickly move into
position. The feature enables the motor to spin faster than the base speed when the load is less than
100% of the rated capacity. Ultra-Lift determines the torque required for the load, calculates the
maximum safe speed, and automatically accelerates to this speed. The maximum speed cannot
exceed the lesser value of the Maximum Forward Speed (C06-02), Maximum Reverse Speed (C06-
03), and Maximum Frequency (E01-04).

Swift-Lift
Swift-Lift can be enabled in the Standard Hoist motion of the G+ Series 4. In the V/f control method,
the Swift-Lift function uses motor current to determine the maximum safe speed. When the OLV
control method is selected, the Swift-Lift function uses motor torque in place of motor current for its
safe speed calculations. Swift-Lift will not be enabled if the current or torque levels exceed C06-04 or
C06-05 settings. Both C06-04 and C06-05 are a percentage of E02-01.

Ultra-Lift
Ultra-Lift can be enabled in the Non-mechanical Load Brake (NLB) Hoist motion of the VG+ Series 4
(FLV only). The Ultra-Lift function measures motor torque at base speed and then accelerates to the
maximum safe speed. Ultra-Lift will not be enabled if the torque levels exceed C06-04 or C06-05
settings.

Adaptive Ultra-Lift
Adaptive Ultra-Lift can only be enabled in the (NLB) Hoist motion of the VG+ Series 4. The Adaptive
Ultra-Lift function continuously monitors motor torque when running above base speed to increase
or decrease motor speed based on varying load conditions.
NOTE: Ultra-Lift is disabled when in traverse applications. Maximum Frequency (E01-04) must be
> C06-02 and C06-03.

This traverse torque limiter function (C07-10 and C07-11) is used in multi-drive, closed-loop traverse
applications to reduce drive fighting due to speed discrepancies between the two sides of a bridge.
This resolves the situation where one side of a bridge will be at full forward torque, while the other
side is a full regen torque. When moving below the Limiter Freq, this feature is disabled and the drive
behaves as normal. When accelerating past the Limiter Freq, the ASR I time is reduced to zero to
limit torque imbalance. Once the motor has accelerated to within the Limiter Freq (i.e. 60 Hz) the
regen torque limit also goes to zero. The drive will remain in this state until the speed reference is
changed. When the speed reference is raised or lowered, regen torque is re-enabled to accel or
decel the bridge as required.
Note that a heavy swinging load may pull the bridge faster than the PG Overspeed level. It is
therefore highly suggested that a PG Overspeed Sel (F01-23) be set to Alarm Only.

5-34
Anti-Shock
Anti-Shock is a Hoist NLB feature on the IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 drive in the Flux Vector control
method. The torque output of the hoist is continuously monitored, and when it increases above a
threshold (C07-15 and C07-16), the hoist automatically decelerates and waits for the torque to
stabilize before smoothly re-accelerating (C07-17 and C07-18). Anti-Shock is designed to maximize
hoist operational efficiency while minimizing crane structure fatigue.

Initial Setup and Adjustment


1. Choosing an option to enable/disable Anti-Shock:
a. Setting C07-12 to 0 (Disabled) ensures Anti-Shock does not function.
b. Setting C07-12 to 1 (Enabled) allows Anti-Shock to run always.
c. Setting C07-12 to 2 (Enbl, Not In MSpd) will block Anti-Shock when Micro-Speed is enabled.
d. Setting H01-xx to 4B (Anti-Shock OFF) sets a digital input which, when enabled, will block
Anti-Shock. This allows Anti-Shock to be enabled or disabled by an external input.
2. Run the hoist, unloaded, in the UP direction. Note the value of U01-09 and enter that
approximate value into C07-23.

To make Anti-Shock less sensitive to light loads and more sensitive to heavy loads:
1. Increasing C07-15 (Torque Delta) to a higher percentage increases the torque spike magnitude
that is required to trigger Anti-Shock.
2. Increasing C07-16 (Detection Time) to a higher time widens the window of time that a torque
spike is looked for.

To make Anti-Shock more sensitive to light loads:


1. Decreasing C07-15 (Torque Delta) to a lower percentage lowers the torque increase magnitude
that is required to trigger Anti-Shock.
2. Increasing C07-16 (Detection Time) to a higher time widens the window of time that a torque
spike is looked for.

Troubleshooting

Anti-Shock is triggered when the load is already in the air:

Cause: This is caused by a torque increase due to acceleration, which falls within the parameter
settings for triggering Anti-Shock.

Corrective Action:
1. Increasing C07-14 (Re-Accel Delay) to a higher time may help remedy this occurrence.
2. Increasing C07-15 (Torque Delta) and decreasing C07-16 (Detection Time) will require a higher
torque spike to occur in a shorter amount of time.

When Anti-Shock is triggered, the drive faults to an OV (Overvoltage) or OC (Overcurrent):

Cause: By default, Anti-Shock is configured to decelerate very quickly when a torque increase is
detected. The deceleration rate may cause a rapid increase in voltage or current, which may fault the
drive.

Corrective Action:
1. Increasing C07-18 (Smoothing Decel) will increase the time it takes for the drive to decelerate
directly after the torque spike is detected. Spikes in voltage and/or current will be reduced.

No-Load Brake Hoist (VG+)
The No-Load Brake Hoist mode provides a start and stop sequence designed specifically for No-
Load Brake Hoists. This mode is enabled automatically when the Motion is set to NLB Hoist
(A01-03 = 2). This will also automatically set the Stopping Method to No-Load Brake (B03-03 = 6).

Start

The start sequence begins by building up torque in the motor to a predefined level within the C08-01
(Torque Compensation Time) timer. This level is determined by several factors which are defined
below. During the C08-02 time, the drive is monitoring current to motor. The current feedback
equation must be satisfied within the time set in C08-02 (IFB OK Time). If it is not, a BE2 (No-
Current) fault will be displayed on the keypad and the drive will stop outputting voltage to the motor.
The brake will remain closed.

Once the brake has been commanded to release, the drive output remains in Load Float for the
amount of time programmed into C08-04. During C08-04, the drive waits for the brake to completely
open and watches encoder feedback. If the amount of feedback is less than the setting in C08-05
(Roll Back Count), then the drive proceeds to the BE3 check. If it is not, a BE1 fault is displayed on
the keypad and the sequence stops. For the BE3 check, if the brake opened mechanically, then the
encoder feedback must be greater than or equal to the value programmed in C08-07 (BE3 Detect
Count) within the time set in C08-06 (BE3/Alt Torq Tim). If it is not, then a BE3 fault is displayed. By
the time the drive has completed the BE3 check, there should be a significant amount of motor shaft
movement and the start sequence is complete.

Stop

The stop sequence begins when the run command has been removed and the output frequency has
decelerated to zero. Once at zero speed, the motor maintains a Load Float position for the duration
of C08-10 (Load Float Time). During the Load Float time, run commands in either direction are
accepted and will begin accelerating immediately in the commanded direction, thereby skipping the
start sequence entirely. The Load Float Timer is reset after each new run command. Once the Load
Float Timer expires, the brake output command is removed (thereby closing the brake) and Load
Float is maintained for the time set in C08-11 (Brake Set Delay) to allow the brake to fully close.
Once the Brake Delay Time has expired, the BE6 check is executed. The BE6 check monitors
encoder feedback while the load is being transferred from the motor to the brake and compares it to
C08-13 (BE6 Max Count). The encoder feedback must not exceed the number of counts in C08-13
within the C08-12 (BE6 Detect Timer) time. If it does (meaning the load slipped through the brake), a
BE6 alarm is displayed on the keypad and the drive will reset its Load Float position and maintain its
new position. Run commands will still be accepted with the exception of a reduced speed in the up
direction set by C08-18 (BE6 Up Speed Limit) and the NLB stop sequence will begin again once the
run command had been removed.

Torque Proving

Factor 1: On the first run command after power up, or after any major fault which causes the stop
sequence to be skipped, the start sequence by default uses the value programmed in C08-16, the
Initial Brake Release torque.

Factor 2: Once the system has completed a successful start and stop, a new Brake Release Torque
value is used. This value is one that has been memorized and stored into memory during the stop
sequence. It is equivalent to the amount of torque required for the motor to hold the load on the hook
in Load Float with the brake released. Some benefits of stored Load Float torque for the next brake
release are:
• Faster response to run commands when drive is in Base Block Status.
• Upon brake release, shaft rotation begins in the direction of the run command.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


5-37
If the stored value is less than the programmed value in C08-03 (Minimum Brake Release torque),
C08-03 is used as the next brake release value. If the feature must be disabled, C08-03 will override
C08-16 if it is a greater value.

Dual Brake Feature

The Dual Brake feature is designed for hoist systems with redundant holding brakes. One brake is
controlled by an MFDO programmed to 00, and the second brake is controlled by an MFDO
programmed to 0A. After a Load Float, during the BE6 (Brake Test) time, one brake is left Open,
while the drive tests that the Closed brake is capable of holding the load. After the BE6 time expires,
the second brake is closed.

This feature is only intended as a method to test each brake individually. A mechanical delay system
may be required to prevent both brakes from closing simultaneously if power is lost.

NOTE: All brake faults are annunciated by both the keypad and via a programmed digital
output. Since the keypad is not visible by the operator, an external warning device must be
used to ensure proper safety of personnel and equipment. Annunciating a brake fault can be
accomplished by using one, or both, of the following methods: 1) An indicator or strobe light
that is continuously “ON”, indicating proper operation. If the light should turn “OFF”, this
indicates that the light bulb has either burned out, or there is a drive or brake problem. Either
scenario requires immediate corrective action. 2) The use of an indicating light wired to relay
output terminals MC-MA, N.O. contact, or an audible warning device that will sound during a
brake fault condition. A 120 VAC audible warning device can be wired directly to terminals
MC-MA, provided that its ratings do not exceed the 1 Amp, 120 VAC, Inductive Spec.

If a brake fault is annunciated during a “Start” sequence, it is recommended that the crane be
moved to a safe location with the load on the hook. The hoist should only be operated if
absolutely necessary. In this type of alarm sequence, either the brake is seized or the drive
cannot develop enough torque in the motor in the time allotted. To troubleshoot the hoist, it
will be necessary to monitor the keypad on the drive and operate the hoist at the same time.
Two people are recommended for this procedure. With one person operating the hoist and
the other person monitoring the keypad, run the hoist. The keypad should display one of the
following faults: BE1, BE2, BE3, or BE4. For corrective action, refer to “Troubleshooting the
Drive” in Chapter 6 of this manual.

If a brake fault is annunciated after the hoist has come to a complete stop, and Load Float
(C08-10) has timed out, it would indicate that the drive has checked the brake and determined
that the brake has insufficient torque available to hold the load. DO NOT TURN OFF POWER.
This condition indicates that the brake has failed and the drive / motor combination is
suspending the load. If, during this condition, the hoist is operated in the “Raise” direction, it
will only be allowed to run at a speed equal to or less than the “BE6 Up Speed” setting in
parameter C08-18 (C08-18 is 6 Hz by default.) This is an additional indication that the brake
has failed to open, or the load is slipping through the brake. It is recommended that the crane
be moved to a safe location and the load lowered to the ground. Corrective action should be
taken to repair the brake. The keypad will be displaying one of two alarms during this
condition: BE5 or BE6. Refer to “Troubleshooting the Drive” in Chapter 6 of this manual.

WA R N I N G

DO NOT turn off power to the drive during a BE6 or BE8 alarm. This may result in loss of
control of the load if the brake has failed in the open position or is unable to hold the load.

WA R N I N G

During a BE5, BE6, or BE8 alarm, power should not be removed from the drive. The load
should be lowered to the ground and the crane moved to a safe location for service.

E-Lift (VG+)
The E-Lift (Emergency Lift) function can be utilized to operate the drive in the event of an encoder
related fault (PGO-1-S/PGO-1-H) that resulted from a defective encoder, encoder cable, or PG-X3
option card. E-Lift can be enabled with a Multi-Function Input (H01-01 ~ H01-08 = 44) under the
condition that all run commands have been removed and the drive is not outputting voltage.

When E-Lift is active, the drive will switch to the control method set in E03-01. In hoist applications, it
is highly recommended to leave E03-01 set to OLV, which will ensure the proper control of the load.
Furthermore, all functions that depend on encoder feedback will be disabled. The Test Mode
Configuration parameters (E03-xx group) are active during E-Lift operation instead of the E01-xx
parameters. By default, the E-Lift function may only remain operational for 10 minutes (user-
adjustable by C08-37), after which a fault will be generated.

DANGER

E-Lift is designed to allow for temporary hoisting operations of motors normally equipped with
an encoder in Flux Vector control. Always follow instructions given in the E-Lift setup
instructions, and utilize extreme caution when operating a hoist in E-Lift mode. Stop the hoist if
any undesired motion occurs and contact Magnetek for additional assistance.

DANGER

Do NOT set E03-01 to a value of 0 (V/f Control) when using E-Lift in hoist applications. E-Lift is
designed to operate using the Open Loop Vector (OLV) control method. The use of the V/f
control method may cause undesired motion of the load and is only intended for
troubleshooting Flux Vector Control method related problems.

E-Lift Setup Instructions


1. Auto-Tune the motor:
Complete the Standard Tuning (Rotational Auto-Tuning) for the motor described in the Auto-Tun-
ing section beginning on page 4-17.

2. Configure the E03 Parameter Group - Test Mode Configuration:


When E-Lift is active, the Test Mode parameters are utilized for voltage and frequency limits
instead of the E01 group. The E03 group should be configured as described Table 5-61.

4. Conduct a Preliminary E-Lift Test:


After all parameters have been configured in steps 2 and 3, the E-Lift function must be tested to
ensure it can raise and lower a load properly. Conduct the following steps to verify the E-Lift
function:
a. Attach a test load to the hoist (rated capacity is recommended).
b. Raise the load approximately one foot above the floor.
c. Turn on the MFDI associated with E-Lift enable (H01-01 ~ H01-08 = 44H).
d. Inspect the display on the digital operator. The flashing title should alternate between
“Emergency Lift” and the present menu title, which confirms that the E-Lift function is active.
e. Perform a series of raise and lower commands and observe the test load.

DANGER

If any undesired motions occur while E-Lift is active, immediately remove any RUN
commands, turn off the E-Lift MFDI, and contact Magnetek.

f. If steps 4.a through 4.e were successful, turn off the E-Lift MFDI and return the hoist to
normal operations.

Weight Measurement
The IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 includes a Weight Calculation function that can be used in
hoisting applications. The weight measurement calculation is based on motor torque at a constant
speed. The drive must pause the acceleration, wait for the torque to stabilize, and then perform the
weight calculation based on the system tare values. The function takes a reading one time per lift
(Raise Run command) when C10-01 = 1 (Automatic), or it can be configured to take a reading at any
speed with a Multi-Function Input when C10-02 = 1 (Manual). The calculated weight can be
displayed on the keypad of the hoist drive.

NOTE: Weight Calculations will be more consistent when a weight measurement is calculated
at the same speed every time. Example: C10-01 = 1, weight measurement is always
calculated at C10-05 speed. It is important to note that after the load has been rigged,
it should be suspended and the brakes should be set on the hoist. When the next
raise command is given, the hoist is now ready to calculate the weight of the load. The
function only works in the Raising motion (Fwd Run). If extreme accuracy is required,
a load cell should be used.
The Weight Measurement function of the hoist drive has an accuracy within 5% with
VG+ drives and 10% with G+ drives of the hoist’s rated capacity.

System Tare and Calibration for Weight Measurement
1. Attach all of the under-hook attachments that are required during normal lifting (chains, slings,
spreader beam, etc.). Remove the load from the bottom block. If there is a spreader beam or
other lifting device that is constantly attached to the bottom block, it may be left in place. If the
lifting device changes, it should be removed for this procedure and the known weight of the lift-
ing device used for each lift should be manually subtracted from weight that is calculated by the
hoist drive.
2. Run the unloaded hoist in the raise direction at the speed that the weight will be calculated at.
The hoist will automatically pause at the speed programmed in parameter C10-05 (6 Hz is the
default) while calculating the weight on the hook. This is the speed the hoist should be run at. An
easy method would be to set the first speed point equal to C10-05 or, if using an analog speed
reference, then program B02-02 (minimum speed) so that it is equal to C10-05.
3. Record the torque reading being displayed by the monitor parameter U01-09 (Torque
Reference). Repeat this step several times and record the average “No Load Torque” in
parameter C10-10 (No Load Torque).
4. Rig the FULL load that the hoist and weight measurement system will be expected to calculate.
If the rigging used for the full load is different than that used in steps 2 and 3, it will need to be
added to the known weight being lifted to obtain an accurate total weight at a later time.
5. Run the loaded hoist in the raise direction at the same speed as step 2.
6. Record the torque reading being displayed by the monitor parameter U01-09 (Torque
Reference). Repeat this step several times and record the average “Full Load Torque” in
parameter C10-09 (Full Load Torque).
7. The monitor parameter U01-29 should now be displaying a value when lifting a full load. This
value is a raw number that could later be converted into a meaningful weight to be displayed on
the keypad. For this procedure, it is not imperative that the number is converted to tons or
pounds. Most importantly, it should read a value of zero or very close to zero when lifting no load
and should be relatively consistent when lifting the same weight repeatedly.

Setting Up U01-29 to Display Actual Weight


1. Enter the weight of the FULL load into C10-04, not including chains, slings or spreader beams.
Enter this number into the right-most four digits of C10-04.
2. Set the desired number of decimal places in the left most digit; see the examples below:

Weight Measurement Design Considerations


1. The drive’s weight measurement monitor, U01-29, will display a fixed value after the
measurement occurs. That value will continue to be displayed until the next weight
measurement is taken at the next run.
2. When displaying the drive’s weight measurement feedback on an auxiliary display, such as a
radio or PLC interface, the most accurate feedback can be obtained from the drive with the use
of the drive’s RS-485 Memobus interface, similar to the architecture implemented with
Magnetek’s RDSI systems. An analog interface can also be implemented, but it is important to
understand the analog input and output resolution’s effect on feedback accuracy before
implementation.

Slack Cable Detection
IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 offers Slack Cable Detection for hoist applications. The Slack Cable
condition is detected when the torque output is drastically reduced and has dipped below a set-point
(C11-03) level. When Slack Cable condition occurs, the output action is defined by the C11-02 which
has six selections.

The Slack Cable Detection is not executed, unless both of the following conditions are true:
• The output frequency is between C11-04 and C11-06.
• The Slack Cable Detection delay time is between C11-05 and C11-07.

Setup Procedure:
• Set the Slack Cable Detection torque level (C11-03), by lowering the hoist without load
at a constant speed that the hoist would normally run during the operation. Monitor
and record the torque reference (U01-09). Repeat the above operation several times
to ensure an accurate reading.
• Then set C11-03 = [(U01-09)-2].
• Enable Slack Cable Detection by setting the C11-01 to 1.
• Select output action when Slack Cable is detected by defining C11-02.

Snap Shaft Detection
This feature is designed to detect a broken or loose coupling by monitoring for a speed deviation
between rotating shafts on a drive train. Ideally, mount one encoder on the motor, which drives the
gearbox and one encoder on the last rotating part of the drive train, usually near the drum if used for
a hoist motion. It is required that a second brake be mounted on the drum shaft. The encoders are
wired into two separate PG-X3 encoder input cards, with channel 1 (CN5-C) being the high speed
shaft input and channel 2 (CN5-B) being the low speed shaft input. The drive will use channel 1 as
the flux vector feedback. The software monitors and compares the speed of both encoders. A gear
ratio is entered into parameters C11-12 and C11-13. In an example, if the gearbox ratio is 46.34 : 1,
then you would program C11-12 to 4634 and C11-13 to 100. If the difference in speed is greater than
the value in C11-10 for a period longer than the setting of C11-11, a “Snap Shaft” is displayed on the
keypad display and the drive will perform the action at snap (C11-09).

Set Up

Parameter U01-30 should be monitored during operation to obtain the exact speed difference in Hz
between the two shafts. The low speed shaft speed is normalized internally by multiplying the speed
of the gear ratio. The value of C11-12 should be adjusted at start up such that U01-30 approaches
0.0.

Maintenance Timer
The “Maintenance Timer” is a maintenance feature that will alert an operator, for example, when the
bearings need to be greased. It consists of a Multi-Function Output (H02-0x–08 = 37) that becomes
active when the total running time has exceeded the amount of time (in hours) programmed in
parameter C12-05 and the frequency reference will be multiplied by a programmable gain (C12-06)
to slow the motion down until the bearings have been greased. An alarm will also be posted on the
Keypad stating “Maintenance Required”. Once the bearings have been greased, the output and
alarm message can be reset by two different methods. One method is through a Multi-Function Input
programmed for Maintenance Reset (H01-01–08 = 5A) and the second method is by pressing the
Mode/Service (Local/Remote) button three consecutive times with no more than 2 seconds between
presses. Press enter to reset the timer. A message will then appear on the keypad stating that the
timer has been reset. The Multi-Function Output will turn off at this time. When C12-01 = 0, the
function is disabled.

5-51
Index Function
Indexing allows for precise movement of the motor each time a run command is applied by the
operator and the Index function is enabled by a Multi-Function Input (H01-xx = 60). This function can
only be used with Traverse (A01-03 = 0) and No Load Brake (A01-03 = 2) motions in Flux Vector
Control Method (A01-02 = 3) and with any Speed Reference setting for A01-04.

The total distance (Pulses) the motor will index is determined by the following equation:

Total distance (Pulses) = [F01-01(Pulse/Rev) * C13-04(Revs)] + C13-05(Pulses)

When the Index function is turned ON, the function can also be programmed to repeat an Index as
long as the Run command is enabled and by setting the Index Repeat Delay (C13-06) greater than
0.00 seconds. The Index will repeat again after the Index Repeat Delay (C13-06) time has expired.
Once the motor completes the Index, the brake will either set or remain in Load Float depending on
the braking sequence described below.

When an Index move is complete, a Multi-Function Output (Index Complete H02-xx = 34) can be
programmed to turn ON, and will remain ON until one of the following is true:
• another directional run input is received,
• the repeat delay time has expired and the movement is repeating, or
• the Index Function is disabled.

When Applied in Traverse (A01-03 = 0)

When the Index Function is turned ON in Traverse applications, the Index Brake Control (C13-12)
can control the action of the brake. The following describes the brake control for each setting:

Open on Index Command (C13-12 = 0)

When the Index Function is turned ON, the brake will release and hold the position in Load Float
until a run command is applied. The brake will set and normal operation will resume when the
Indexing function is disabled.

Open on Each Run (C13-12 = 1)

When the Index function is turned ON, the brake will release after each run command is applied,
then Index the motor. The brake will set after the Index or Index Repeat is complete, or the run
command is removed.

Latch Open on Run (C13-12 = 2)

When the Index function is turned ON, the brake will release when a run command is applied, then
the drive will Index the motor and will hold the position in Load Float after the Index function is
complete. The drive will remain in Load Float until another run command or the Index function is
turned OFF. The brake will set and normal operation will resume when the Index function is turned
OFF.
NOTE: For best performance, enable Index after brake has released. Not recommended for
double A4 applications.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


5-52
When Applied in No-Load Brake (NLB) Hoist (A01-03 = 2)

When the motion is No-Load Brake Hoist and the Index Brake Control C13-12 = 2, the action of the
brake is controlled by the No-Load Brake sequence. The Index function can be enabled at any time
during operation and the action of the brake is described below in C13-12.

At Stop

If the Index function is turned ON while the crane is stopped, the brake will release when a run
command is applied. Then the drive will Index the motor and will hold the position in Load Float after
the Index function is complete. The drive will remain in Load Float until another Run command is
applied or the Index function is turned OFF. When the Index function is turned OFF, the drive will set
the brake according to the No-Load Brake stop sequence.

During Run

If the motor is in motion when the Index function is turned ON, the drive will decelerate to zero and
hold the position in Load Float. After a Run command is applied, the drive will Index the load and
hold the position in Load Float after the Index is complete. The brake is set according to the No-Load
Brake stop sequence when the Index function is turned OFF.
NOTE: For best performance, enable Index after brake has released. Not recommended for
double A4 applications.
NOTE: When either the Index Enable or Run Command is removed, the stop sequence will be
initiated.

DC Injection
With decel to stop enabled (B03-03=0), upon removal of the run command, the IMPULSE®•G+ and
VG+ Series 4 drive controls motor deceleration according to the Decel Time setting (B05-02), until
output frequency reaches the DC Injection Braking Start Frequency (D01-01 setting). Then the
IMPULSE®•G+ and VG+ Series 4 frequency output is turned off and DC injection current is applied
to the motor. The effective DC injection time and current should be set to provide adequate stopping
without excessive motor heating. The DC injection voltage is determined by the DC injection braking
current and motor impedance.

Motor Slip Compensation
As the load becomes larger, the motor speed is reduced and the motor slip increases. The slip
compensation function keeps the motor speed constant under varying load conditions. D02-01 sets
the slip compensation gain. When the gain is “1.0”, the output frequency is increased by 1% of the
E01-06 setting at rated current. A setting of “0.0” results in no slip compensation.

Torque Compensation
The motor torque requirement changes according to load conditions. Full-range automatic torque
boost adjusts the voltage of the V/f pattern according to the required torque. The IMPULSE®•G+ and
VG+ Series 4 automatically adjusts the voltage during constant-speed operation as well as during
acceleration.

The required torque is calculated by the inverter. This ensures trip-less operation and power
savings.

Output voltage  Torque compensation gain x Required torque

When more torque is needed, increase the torque compensation gain in one-tenth (0.1) increments.
Increase the setting when the wiring distance between the inverter and the motor is 100ft. or longer.
If the motor generates excessive vibration or oscillates, decrease the torque compensation.

Increasing torque compensation gain increases motor torque, but an excessive increase may cause
the following:
• Inverter fault trips due to motor overexcitation, and/or
• Motor overheat or excessive vibration.

Automatic Speed Regulator (ASR) Tuning


The ASR controls the motor speed in the FLV control method and adjusts the output torque
reference to minimize the difference between frequency reference and actual motor speed.
The figure below illustrates ASR functionality:

Figure 5-18: Speed Control Block Diagram for FLV


Perform Auto-Tuning and set up all motor data correctly prior to adjusting ASR parameters.

Generally when tuning the ASR, optimize the ASR gain before adjusting the integral time settings.
Always make adjustments with the load connected to the motor.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


5-57
Adjusting the ASR Parameters in FLV

The drive is preset to use ASR settings D04-01/02 over the entire speed range in FLV. If required by
the application, a second set of ASR parameters (D04-03/04) can be automatically activated
depending on the motor speed or by using a digital input. Refer to the description in D04-01/D04-02
and D04-03/D04-04 on page 5-59.

Perform the following steps for adjusting ASR parameters:


1. Run the motor at zero speed and increase the ASR gain (D04-01) as much as possible without
oscillation.
2. Run the motor at zero speed and decrease the ASR integral time (D04-02) as much as possible
without oscillation.
3. Run at the normal operating speed. Check for over/undershoot when changing speed and for
any oscillation.
4. If problems occur in step 3, increase the integral time and reduce the gain.

Alternatively, use different ASR settings for high and low speed. Set the values from step 1 and 2 to
parameters D04-03 and D04-04, then set an ASR switching frequency in parameter D04-07. Run the
motor at a speed higher than D04-07 and repeat step 3 while adjusting D04-01 and D04-02.

These parameter settings will function differently depending on the control method.
NOTE: Mechanical backlash in an application can cause secondary current (I2) reference
variations in the motor’s rotor. This condition can prevent the desired adjustment of ASR
parameters. The output delay time constant is used to increase the stability of the system
allowing a wider setting range of ASR parameters.

Flux Vector (FLV)

Parameters D04-03 and D04-04 define the ASR proportional gain an integral time at zero speed.
The settings in D04-01 and D04-02 are used at speeds above the setting in D04-07. D04-07 is set
by default to 0.0 so D04-01 and D04-02 are used by default over the entire speed range. However,
changing D04-07 creates two levels of ASR control settings, as shown in Figure 5-19 below.

Figure 5-19: Low-speed and High-speed Gain Settings


The switching frequency (D04-07) can also be controlled with a digital input programmed to “ASR
gain switch” (H01-xx = 37). When the terminal is open, the drive uses the ASR gain level set by the
pattern in Figure 5-19 above. When the terminal closes, D04-03 is used. The integral time set to
D04-02 is used to change linearly between these settings, as shown in Figure 5-20 below. The ASR
gain switch command from a multi-function input terminal overrides the switching frequency set to
D04-07.

This function is used to avoid excessive changes in torque, which may be caused by abnormal
resonance when the torque reference changes rapidly.

Speed/Torque Control Switching
Speed control or torque control is used in traverse applications and can be selected “on the fly” with
the VG+ drive by using the multi-function input speed/torque control selection command (H01-xx =
34).

1. When the speed/torque control selection contact is OFF, speed control is activated.
• Speed reference during speed control depends on the frequency reference selection
(B03-01) setting. To use terminal A1, A2, or A3 as the master frequency reference,
set B03-01 to “1.”
• Torque limit during speed control is the smaller of the absolute value of terminal A2 or
A3 torque limit, or the values set in the torque limit parameters (C07-01 to C07-04) is
used as the torque limit.
• When a stop command is given during speed control, speed control is maintained as
the motor decelerates to stop and the smaller of the absolute value of the terminal A2
or A3 torque limit, or the values set in the torque limit parameters (C07-01 to C07-04)
is used as the torque limit.
2. When the speed/torque control selection is ON, torque control is activated.
• Speed limit during torque control is the master frequency reference at terminal A1, A2,
or A3 when speed limit selection (D05-03) is set to “1”, and is the speed limit value
(D05-04) when D05-03 = “2”, regardless of the frequency reference selection (B03-
01) setting.
• During torque control, the terminal A2 or A3 analog input value becomes the torque
reference.
3. By giving a stop command during torque control, operation changes to speed control
automatically, and the motor decelerates to stop. The torque limit during deceleration to stop
becomes the values set in the torque limit parameters (C07-01 to C07-04).
NOTE: The control method actually changes after the speed/torque control selection command
changes and the reference delay timer (D05-06) elapses. The speed reference/speed limit
and the torque limit/torque reference are stored in the inverter until the time set to D05-06
elapses.

S-Curve Acceleration/Deceleration
An S-Curve pattern is used to reduce shock and provide smooth transitions during machine
acceleration and deceleration. S-Curve characteristic time is the time from the output frequency to
the set accel/decel time. See S-Curve Characteristic timing diagrams below and on the following
page.

The figure below shows FWD/REV run switching during deceleration to stop. The S-curve function
will add time to the acceleration and deceleration. Time to accelerate from the minimum frequency to
the maximum frequency (total acceleration) is:

Total Acceleration =

Time to decelerate from the maximum frequency to the minimum frequency (total deceleration) is:

Hunting Prevention
Occasionally, in an application, resonance between the internal control system and the mechanical
system causes instability. This is called hunting, and may cause a crane to vibrate at a lower speed
(up to 30 Hz) and/or with a light load. The hunting prevention function monitors the motor flux and
uses a special control circuit to “smooth out” any peaks in the output current wave form.

Increase the set value of D11-02 when hunting is present while driving a light load. Decrease the set
value of D11-02 when the motor vibrates or stalls while driving a heavy load.

Motor Set-up
E2 constants define motor parameters. Normally, the default settings for E2 constants are
determined by kVA selection (O02-04). In flux vector control and open loop vector, the E2 constants
will be set automatically during auto-tuning. At minimum, the motor rated current should be entered
into E02-01.

If rotational auto-tuning cannot be performed, E02-02 and E02-05 can be calculated using the
motor’s nameplate information or by performing non-rotational auto-tuning.

Motor rated slip frequency (E02-02) can be calculated by using the following equation:

fs  f 
N * P 
120
W h ere… fs: slip freq uency (H z)
f: rated frequency (H z)
N: rated m otor speed (rpm )
P: num ber of m otor poles

Motor terminal resistance E02-05 can be calculated by using the following equation:

Test Mode Configuration
Test Mode is a troubleshooting aid that is intended for troubleshooting Flux Vector control method
problems in the field. This feature cannot be left on indefinitely, as it will generate a fault after being
on for a total accumulated time of ten minutes. At this time, the fault must be reset or the power must
be cycled.

To enable Test Mode, refer to parameter L05-01.

Digital Outputs—Alarm/Fault Annunciate (H02-01–03=40)
Digital Outputs—Fault Annunciate enables you to assign a set of six fault outputs to Relay Output
M2/M3 and/or Output M5/M6. In addition, you can select whether each fault output is enabled.
NOTE: Output M0/M1 can also be used for Digital Outputs—Fault Annunciate; however, it is
normally assigned to a brake output.

Before you start to program this feature, you may find it convenient to first photocopy the “Binary-to-
Hexadecimal Conversion Worksheet” in this section. By being able to write in the worksheet’s boxes,
you will find it easier to program the feature.

Programming Digital Outputs—Fault Annunciate requires that you determine two 4-digit binary
numbers and then convert these numbers to two 1-digit hexadecimal numbers. You enter the
hexadecimal numbers when you program the drive.

To program Digital Outputs—Fault Annunciate (from the Programming Menu):

1. Press the and the buttons to navigate to H02-01.

2. Determine the output terminal to which you want Fault Annunciate assigned; Terminals M0-M1,
M2-M3 or M5-M6 and press until the value blinks.

3. Press the or button until H02-xx = 040 appears.

4. Press the button. H02-xx = 40 appears.


Flt Annunciate

5. From the worksheet in table 5-77, select one of three fault output sets (each row is a set). Enter
the one-zero combination that corresponds to the set (row) that you selected.
6. Determine which fault outputs should be enabled. To enable a fault output, enter 1 in the box
above the fault output; otherwise, enter 0. Do this for each fault output in the set.
7. Using the Binary to Hexadecimal Conversion chart (table 5-79), determine the 1-digit
hexadecimal number for both 4-digit binary numbers.

8. Press the or and buttons until the appropriate hexadecimal number appears
and press Enter.

Example: Select a fault annunciate set in which the fault you want to appear is shown. You must
select only faults from one set. If you want to have the relay output to change based on only inputs
LL1 and UL1, you would choose Set 2.
1. Place a “1” below LL1 and UL1 for Set 2.
2. Use table 5-78 to convert the left binary value “1 0 0 0” to Hex 8.
3. Use table 5-78 to convert the right binary value “1 0 1 0” to Hex A.
4. Enter this value into H02-xx.

External Fault Response Selection


It is sometimes desirable to have at least one external fault input to the drive. To properly program a
multi-function input (H01-01 to H01-08) for this purpose an external fault response must be selected.
The table below shows the possible selections for an external fault response.

Motor Overload
The IMPULSE®•G+ and VG+ Series 4 drive has an electronic overload protection function (OL1) for
protecting the motor from overheating. The drive bases the protection on time, output current, and
output frequency. The electronic thermal overload function is UL-recognized, so an external thermal
overload relay is not required for single motor operation.
This parameter selects the motor overload curve used according to the type of motor applied.
Setting L01-01 = 1 selects a motor with limited cooling capability below rated (base) speed when
running at 100% load. The OL1 function derates the motor any time it is running below base speed.
Setting L01-01 = 2 selects a motor capable of cooling itself at any speed when running at 100% load.
The OL1 function derates the motor when it is running at 1/10 of its rated speed or less.
Setting L01-01 = 3 selects a motor capable of cooling itself at any speed when running at 100% load.
This includes zero speed. The OL1 function does not derate the motor at any speed.
If the drive is connected to a single motor, the motor overload protection should be enabled
(L01-01 = 1, 2, 3) unless another means of preventing motor thermal overload is provided. When the
electronic thermal overload function is activated, an OL1 fault occurs, shutting OFF the drive’s
output, thus preventing additional overheating of the motor. The motor temperature is continuously
calculated as long as the drive is powered up.
When operating several motors with one drive, install a thermal relay on each motor and disable the
motor overload protection (L01-01 = 0).

Test Mode
Test Mode is a troubleshooting aid that is intended for troubleshooting Flux Vector Control Method
problems in the field. The feature cannot be left on indefinitely as it will generate a fault after being
on for a total accumulated time of 10 minutes. At this time, the fault must be reset or power must be
cycled.

When enabled, the Control Method in A01-02 is temporarily overridden to V/f. All other functions for
the new control method are not restricted. Certain programming may need to be done to clear up
any OPE conditions that may occur as a result of the change in control method during this mode. It is
up to the user to determine if a special function may cause an unsafe condition during testing. Since
this feature will be used mainly for No-Load Brake type hoists, many of the inherent safety checks
will become disabled. It may be desirable to disable functions such as Ultra-Lift, but desirable to
leave Limit Switch functions enabled. The user will need to determine what functions are being used.
If unsure, it is best to ensure that the function is disabled (either by programming or MFDI in OFF
state) before running the drive/motor in this mode.

Fault Latch Selection
The Fault Latch function allows for specific faults to become “latched” after the automatic fault reset
attempts (L09-02) has maxed out. The Reset key on the keypad will be blocked from clearing the
fault, and the fault can only be cleared by any of the methods explained below. In the case of a
power loss, the fault will remain latched when power is restored.

A latched fault can be cleared in three ways:


1. The recommended method is to program an MFDI (H01-xx) to 48 (Flt Latch Reset). The digital
input must be toggled (ON and then OFF) in order for the fault to clear. Since this feature is
intended for safety, a key switch is the recommended form of hardware. This will prevent the
recurring fault from being continuously cleared and ignored unless the key is present and tog-
gled.
2. A second method for clearing the fault is using the Monitor tool within IMPULSE®•Link.
3. The F1 or F2 keypad key can be programmed to 48 (Flt Latch Reset). When a fault is latched,
simply pressing the F1 or F2 key twice will reset the fault.
NOTE: An MFDI and F1/F2 keys are allowed to be programmed after a fault is latched.

The digital operator has parameter COPY capabilities via built-in non-volatile memory. The digital
operator can READ all of the parameters in the Drive and store them for later, and then WRITE back
to the Drive or into a Drive with the same product code and software number. In order to read the
parameter values and store them into the digital operator, select O04-02 = 1 (Enabled). If you
attempt to READ the data, which overwrites any previously stored data, without first setting
O04-02 = “1: Enabled,” you will get the following error:

RDER
READ DATA ERROR

After setting O04-02 = 1 (Enabled), it is possible to store parameter values in the digital operator by
setting O04-01 = 1 (INV  OP READ). A successful READ of the parameter values will display:

An error may occur while saving the parameter values to the digital operator’s memory. If an error is
displayed, press any key to cancel the error display and return to parameter O04-01. Error displays
and their meanings are covered in Chapter 6: Troubleshooting of Copy function Related Faults. To
COPY the parameter values into a Drive, set O04-01 = 2 (OP  INV WRITE). During the writing of
the parameter values into the Drive, the digital operator will display:

An error may occur while writing the parameter values to the Drive. If an error is displayed, press any
key to cancel the error display and return to parameter O04-01. Error displays and their meanings
are covered in Chapter 6: Troubleshooting of Copy Function Related Faults.
It is possible to compare the parameter values stored in the digital operator with the parameter
values currently in the Drive by using the VERIFY function. This VERIFY function should not be
confused with the “-VERIFY-” that is displayed on the digital operator when viewing the “Modified
Constants” menu. To VERIFY the parameter values in the Drive as compared with those stored in
the digital operator, set O04-01 = 3 (OP  INV VERIFY). During the comparing of the parameter
values into the drive the digital operator will display:

If all the parameters stored in the digital operator do not match those programmed in the Drive, the
digital operator displays the following:

VERIFY ERROR

The digital operator will not display which parameters did not match, only that the verification found
discrepancies in some parameter values.
NOTE: In order to properly use the COPY or VERIFY functions, the following Drive information
must be identical between the Drive that the parameters were read from and the Drive that
the parameters are written to:

Model Number (e.g. 5001-G+S4)


Software Number (e.g. 14700 also known as FLASH ID)

Troubleshooting the Drive
In this troubleshooting section, “Check,” means investigating whether an item is functioning and in
an acceptable physical condition, and then taking corrective action (adjusting, fixing, replacing, etc.)
as necessary. In the “Corrective Action” column, you may not have to perform all of the steps to
correct the problem.

Maintenance and Inspection


This section describes basic maintenance and inspection procedures for the IMPULSE®•G+ and

Troubleshooting Encoder Related Faults
The faults in this section may involve the encoder feedback system. During system startup, these
faults are often caused by parameters that need to be adjusted. However, after the system has been
running for some time without a fault, this usually indicates a problem with the physical system and
adjusting the parameters should only be done after the physical system has been inspected.

Fault Code: DEV– Speed Deviation Fault

Definition
A speed deviation fault means that the drive output is not able to follow the commanded speed
reference. This is possible if there is not enough torque available to follow the internal speed
reference. Therefore, speed deviations will typically occur when the drive is at its programmed
torque limit. In addition, if the drive receives erratic, or missing, encoder pulses, speed deviations are
also possible. If the initial drive tuning and start-up of the system was successfully completed and
the crane has been in operation without any faults, then the occurrence of this fault most likely
indicates that something mechanical with the system has changed or drive parameters were
changed (i.e., failed encoder, load snag, crane overload, change in acceleration or deceleration
times, etc.).

Corrective Action
1. Do NOT continue to operate the hoist.
NOTE: Continued attempts to operate the hoist with speed deviation faults occurring can
result in loss of control of the load under certain circumstances.
2. As a precaution the load float time, parameter C08-10 should be set to zero until the source of
the speed deviation fault has been determined and corrected.
3. Verify if the load has snagged or if there is a load on the hook that exceeds capacity.
4. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft
coupling (depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive will get erratic pulse signals or no signals at all causing a speed
deviation fault or PGO (Pulse Generator Open) fault. Repairs to the encoder wheel or shaft
coupling should be made immediately before again attempting to operate the hoist.
5. If the encoder appears to have no mechanical problems, the encoder cable should be checked
for damage and replaced if a problem is found.
5.1 Each of the encoder wires should be checked for continuity.
5.2 The wires should be checked for shorts between any two wires.
5.3 The wires should be checked for shorts to the shield or ground.
5.4 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
6. If the encoder feedback system checks out mechanically and electrically, then the last physical
check to make is for something in the mechanical system that might be resisting normal
operation. One example may be the brake is not opening fully and is causing enough drag to
prevent the system from operating at commanded speed.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


6-16
7. If the encoder feedback system checks out and no other mechanical problems can be found,
then something must have changed in the control system.
7.1 Check if the acceleration or deceleration times have been changed (B05-01, B05-02, C01-
02, C01-04, or C01-05).
7.2 Check if a function that provides an alternate acceleration or deceleration rate has been
enabled or changed (Quick Stop, Reverse Plug Simulation, Accel/Decel Time 2).
If one of these times is too short, causing torque limited acceleration or deceleration, then the
times should be extended.
8. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), only then should the speed deviation
detection levels be adjusted.
NOTE: The reaction time necessary to stop a load is limited to the lift of the hoist and the
response time of the hoist brakes. It is desirable to have as fast a fault reaction time
as possible without causing nuisance trips.)
9. Increase Encoder Excessive Speed Deviation Level to no more than 30 (F01-27).
10. After the corrective action has been taken and the fault no longer occurs then the load float time,
C08-10, can be set back to its initial value.

Fault Code: PGO-X-S/PGO-X-H–Pulse Generator Signal Fault

Definition
The pulse generator signal missing fault indicates that the drive has detected a problem with
encoder feedback. This fault will typically occur if the drive doesn’t receive any encoder feedback
pulses while it is commanded to run or encoder wiring has a discontinuity.
NOTE: The “X” in PGO-X-S and PGO-X-H depicts either a “1” if the PG-X3 is seated in connector
CN5-C, or a “2” if the PG-X3 is seated in connector CN5-B.

Corrective Action
1. Do NOT continue to operate the hoist in the event of a PGO-X-H fault or repeated PGO-X-S
faults.
NOTE: Continued attempts to operate the hoist with PGO faults occurring can result in loss of
control of the load under certain circumstances.
2. As a precaution, the load float time, parameter C08-10, should be set to zero until the source of
the PGO Fault has been determined and corrected. Disable PGO hardware detection with
F01-06 or F01-08.
3. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, the encoder shaft
coupling (depending on the type of encoder used), or check for a failed encoder sensor head. If
one of these conditions exists the drive will get erratic pulse signals or no signal at all causing a
speed deviation fault or PGO fault. Repairs to the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be
made immediately before attempting to operate the hoist again.
4. If the encoder appears to have no mechanical problems, the encoder cable should be checked
for damage and replaced if a problem is found.
4.1 Each of the encoder wires should be check for continuity.
4.2 The wires should be checked for shorts between any two wires.
4.3 The wires should be checked for shorts to the shield or ground.
4.4 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
5. If the encoder feedback system checks out, then check for physical obstruction to motor rotation
such as brake failing to open.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


6-17
6. After corrective action has been taken and the fault no longer occurs then the load float time,
C08-10, can be set back to initial value.

Fault Code: BE1–Rollback Fault

Definition
The BE1 fault indicates that the drive has released the brake, but has not started to accelerate the
motor when it detects more than the expected encoder feedback. A BE1 fault will occur if the pulses
received during the BE1 detection time (C08-04) are greater than the expected number of pulses
(C08-05). This is typically caused by the drive/motor having insufficient torque to suspend the load.

Correction Action
1. Check the encoder cable for damage and proper grounding. Replace it if a problem is found.
1.1 Each of the encoder signals should be checked for excessive noise.
1.2 The shielded encoder cable should be properly grounded.
1.3 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
2. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft
coupling (Depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive may get erratic pulse signals possibly causing a BE1 fault. Repairs to
the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be made immediately before again attempting to
operate the hoist.
3. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), only then should the BE1 detection
parameters be adjusted.
NOTE: It is desirable to have as fast a fault reaction time as possible without causing
nuisance trips.
4. Increase C08-05 to no more than 800 pulses.

Fault Code: BE2–Torque Proving Fault

Definition
The BE2 fault indicates that the drive was unable to develop sufficient torque before releasing the
brake. A BE2 fault occurs when the torque (U01-09) is less than the Initial Forward Brake Torque
(C08-16) during the current feedback timer (C08-02) at start. This typically indicates that the brake is
slipping while torque is building up in the motor before releasing the brake.
NOTE: This fault typically indicates a failed brake. Power should NOT be removed while this
alarm is active and the load should be moved to a safe location and lowered before
proceeding with any corrective action.

Corrective Action
1. Check the brake for proper operation and adjustment. If the brake does not set, is improperly
adjusted or is excessively worn, it may not be able to hold the load. This will allow the encoder
pulses received while torque is building up in the motor.
2. Check the encoder cable for damage and proper grounding. Replace it if a problem is found.
2.1 Each of the encoder signals should be checked for excessive noise.
2.2 The shielded encoder cable should be properly grounded.
2.3 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
3. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


6-18
coupling (depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive may get erratic pulse signals possibly causing a BE2 fault. Repairs to
the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be made immediately before again attempting to
operate the hoist.
4. Perform a Brake Torque test to verify the braking torque compared to the brake specifications
before proceeding.
5. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), the brake may need to be replaced.
NOTE: It is desirable to have the Current Feedback Timer set as low as possible without causing
nuisance trips.

Fault Code: BE3–Brake Release Fault

Definition
The BE3 fault indicates that the drive has released the brake and commanded the drive to run, but
has not detected the expected encoder feedback. A BE3 fault will occur if the pulses received during
the BE3 detection time (C08-06) are less than the expected number of pulses (C08-07).
NOTE: Depending on the condition of the crane and control system, the load may drift during the
BE3 detection time until the brake is again set. If giving a run command, the BE3 fault
should be detected before a PGO fault would be detected.

Corrective Action
1. Check the brake for proper operation. If the brake does not open the drive will not see the proper
number of encoder pulses returned and will post this fault.
2. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft
coupling (depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive will get erratic pulse signals or no signals at all possibly causing a
BE3 fault. Repairs to the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be made immediately before
again attempting to operate the hoist.
3. If the encoder appears to have no mechanical problems, the encoder cable should be checked
for damage and replaced if a problem is found.
3.1 Each of the encoder wires should be checked for continuity.
3.2 The wires should be checked for shorts between any two wires.
3.3 The wires should be checked for shorts to the shield or ground.
3.4 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
4. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), only then should the BE3 detection
parameters be adjusted.
NOTE: It is desirable to have as fast a fault reaction time as possible without causing
nuisance trips.
5. Ensure that C08-04 is equal to the brake’s mechanical delay time.
6. Increase the value of C08-06 to no more than 1 second.
7. Decrease the value of C08-07 to no less than 10 pulses.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


6-19
Alarm Code: BE6–Brake Proving Alarm

Definition
The BE6 alarm indicates that the drive has commanded the brake to set but it has detected more
encoder pulse feedback than expected. A BE6 alarm will occur if the number of pulses received
during the BE6 detection time (C08-12) is greater than the expected number of pulses (C08-13). The
drive will initiate Load Float for the duration of the BE6 alarm.
NOTE: This fault typically indicates a failed brake. Power should NOT be removed while this
alarm is active and the load should be moved to a safe location and lowered before
proceeding with any corrective action.
NOTE: The BE6-Brake Proving Alarm is re-verified during every brake set, including brake sets
that occur after the BE6 alarm is posted. The BE6 alarm will turn off if a successful
brake check occurs after an initial BE6 alarm condition is posted based on the
setting of C08-19.

Corrective Action
1. Check the brake for proper operation and adjustment. If the brake does not set, is improperly
adjusted or is excessively worn, it may not be able to hold the load. This will allow the encoder
pulses received during the detection time to exceed the set point.
2. Check the encoder cable for damage and proper grounding. Replace it if a problem is found.
2.1 Each of the encoder signals should be checked for excessive noise.
2.2 The shielded encoder cable should be properly grounded.
2.3 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
3. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft
coupling (Depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive may get erratic pulse signals possibly causing a BE6 alarm. Repairs
to the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be made immediately before again attempting to
operate the hoist.
4. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), only then should the BE6 detection
parameters be adjusted.
NOTE: It is desirable to have as fast a fault reaction time as possible without causing
nuisance trips.
5. Ensure that C08-11 is equal to the brake’s mechanical delay time.
6. Increase the value of C08-13.

Alarm Code: BE8–Brake Slipping Alarm

Definition
The BE8 alarm indicates that the drive has detected that the brake slipping after the brake is set. A
BE8 alarm will occur if the drive detects that the load is moving greater than the brake Slip Detection
Speed (C08-23) when the brake is set. When this occurs, the drive will go into load float while the
brake is set.
NOTE: This alarm typically indicates a failed brake. Power should NOT be removed while this
alarm is active and the load should be moved to a safe location and lowered before
proceeding with any corrective action.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017

Corrective Action
1. Check the brake for proper operation and adjustment. If the brake does not set, is improperly
adjusted or is excessively worn, it may not be able to hold the load. This will allow the encoder
pulses received while the brake is set.
2. Check the encoder cable for damage and proper grounding. Replace it if a problem is found.
2.1 Each of the encoder signals should be checked for excessive noise.
2.2 The shielded encoder cable should be properly grounded.
2.3 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
3. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft
coupling (depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive may get erratic pulse signals possibly causing a BE8 fault. Repairs to
the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be made immediately before again attempting to
operate the hoist.
4. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), the brake may need to be replaced.
NOTE: It is desirable to have as fast a fault reaction time as possible without causing
nuisance trips.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017


6-21
Fault Code: OC–Over Current Fault

Definition
An over current fault is caused if the output current exceeds 200% of the inverter rated output
current. This fault can be caused by short circuits in the wiring or in the motor, and it can also be
caused by parameters that are not adjusted properly. One other cause of this fault could be erratic or
no encoder feedback. In the last instance, the drive is trying to command the motor to hold a
position, but due to the encoder problem, is unable to find the correct position. This would cause the
drive to increase current output to the motor in an attempt to correct the position until an over current
fault occurs.

Corrective Action
1. Check the motor wiring and the motor itself for a short between phases.
2. Check the alignment of the encoder pulse wheel with the sensor head, or the encoder shaft
coupling (depending on the type of encoder used). If the pulse wheel is misaligned or the shaft
coupling is loose the drive will get erratic pulse signals or no signals at all possibly causing an
OC fault. Repairs to the encoder wheel or shaft coupling should be made immediately before
again attempting to operate the hoist.
3. If the encoder appears to have no mechanical problems, the encoder cable should be checked
for damage and replaced if a problem is found.
3.1 Each of the encoder wires should be check for continuity.
3.2 The wires should be checked for shorts between any two wires.
3.3 The shield should be check for proper grounding.
3.4 The wires should be checked for shorts to the shield or ground.
3.5 Visually inspect the cable for damage that may be causing intermittent problems.
4. If none of the above steps has identified a valid problem(s), check if any of the torque limit
parameters (C07-01 to C07-04) have been changed. If these parameters have been changed to
allow a higher torque value, it could cause overcurrent trips.
NOTE: Changing these parameters could also induce speed deviation or overload faults. Only a
trained technician should modify these parameters. It is desirable to have as fast a fault
reaction time as possible without causing nuisance trips.

Power Section Check

WA R N I N G

Do NOT touch any circuit components while AC main power is on or immediately after the
main AC power is disconnected from the unit. You must wait until the red “CHARGE” lamp is
extinguished. It may take as long as 10 minutes for the charge on the main DC bus capacitors
to drop to a safe level. Failure to adhere to this warning could result in serious injury.

Power Off Checks


To perform a power section check, remove the drive’s main and control wiring from the terminal
strips. Obtain reading as specified in the table on the next, and ensure that the reading falls within
the normal reading range.

S4IF Replacement Procedure

WA R N I N G

Do NOT touch any circuit components while AC main power is on or immediately after the
main AC power is disconnected from the unit. You must wait until the red “CHARGE” lamp is
extinguished. It may take as long as 10 minutes for the charge on the main DC bus capacitors
to drop to a safe level. Failure to adhere to this warning could result in serious injury.

NOTE: When handling boards always use electrostatic discharge protection. Keep the boards in
the ESD bag as long as you can. Do not lay the board on any surfaces without ESD
protection. When handling, always hold the board from the edges and do not touch the
components. Installation should be performed only by qualified personnel who are familiar
with this type of equipment and the hazards involved.

Figure 6-2: Location of Retaining Screws


1. Prior to installation, record all modified parameters.
2. Set A01-05 = 7770 (this prepares all modified and user parameters for IF card removal).
3. Disconnect all electrical power to the drive.
4. Remove the drive's front cover.
5. Verify that the “CHARGE” indicator lamp inside the drive is OFF (may take up to 5 minutes).
6. Use a voltmeter to verify the voltage at the incoming power terminals (L1, L2, and L3) has been
disconnected.
7. Follow your local ESD procedures.

IMPULSE®•G+ & VG+ Series 4 Instruction Manual – February 2017

8. Loosen the two retaining screws (A) pictured in Figure 6-2.
9. Remove existing interface card by grasping each corner at TB6 and TB5 and slide down until
free.
10. Return I/O board to ESD bag
11. Complete all main circuit terminal connections as the installation of the S4IF interface card may
block wiring access.
NOTE: Wires to the S4IF interface card should be stripped 0.2" ±20% for maximum system safety.
Solder dipping or ferrules are also highly recommended.
12. Insert the S4IF interface card by sliding it onto the side guides until it mates tightly into the CN4-
1 connector.
13. Tighten the screws (A) pictured in Figure 6-2.
14. Connect the command signals to the desired inputs of the S4IF interface card.
15. Refer to Table 3-8 for additional information regarding the S1, S2, S3, and S4 settings.
16. Reinstall and secure the drive's front cover.
17. Reconnect power to the drive.
18. Set A01-05 = 8880 (this moves all modified and user parameters to new IF card).
19. Verify modified parameters with those recorded in Step 1.
